Meera his wife, who has been opposing from the beginning the request of "euthanasia" from her husband, having lost any hope to live, at last submits to her husband's persuasion and agrees to apply in the court for passive euthanasia.

Vasu will be denied of his request, by the court as per the existing law. Though Vasu is disappointed by this verdict, Meera feels happier. For further treatment, now by nature therapy as suggested by his mother, Vasu is taken to a place near his hometown.
